Twenty-eighth, take a risky move

Jian Huaizhen thought for a while and said, "I don't think it's strange, maybe it's a preconceived reason, once you think in your heart that a person is not a trustworthy person, then you won't trust him very much anymore." After Jian Huaizhen said this, he glanced at Zhu Jianshen.

Zhu Jianshen didn't react for a while, and after a while, Zhu Jianshen only felt that his mind was chaotic and messy, and he didn't know who said what was true and who said it was false.

In his mind, he told himself that Jian Huaizhen would not treat himself badly no matter what, so this matter must indeed be as Jian Huaizhen said, otherwise, she would not have bothered to tell herself about this matter so much, presumably it was the scattered death that also hit her, so she had such an idea.

After leaving Wan'an Palace, Zhu Jianshen was thinking about what Jian Huaizhen had said to him all the way, and his heart fluctuated for a while, and it was difficult to calm down like waves.

What Jian Huaizhen said is not unreasonable, Zhu Jianchen's sudden gain of power is indeed a little strange when you think about it, although he said that he reused Zhu Jianchen because Zhu Jianchen helped him block an arrow, so this arrow became a crucial point.

In the end, this arrow was deliberately arranged by Zhu Jianchen? Or is everything just a coincidence?

He felt that with Jian Huaizhen's character, if he wanted to deal with King Jing, there was really no need to torture himself to the way he was now, and the scattered deaths were indeed a little strange, he thought about it, after all, he had been with Jian Huaizhen for so many years, and he believed in Jian Huaizhen more and more in his heart.

Accompanied by Gu Lengyi, he slowly walked back to the Qianqing Palace, and after arriving in the Qianqing Palace, he sat down, raised his head to look at Gu Lengyi, and said, "Father-in-law Gu, what do you think of King Jing?" ”

Gu Lengyi suddenly heard him ask about King Jing, he was slightly stunned, and hurriedly said: "Slaves don't dare to judge the prince at will. ”

"It's okay, then I will forgive you for your innocence, you can just taste it. If you tell me what you think about King Jing, I will be rewarded. ”

After hearing Zhu Jianshen say this, Gu Leng thought about it, and still said slowly: "What the slave sees on weekdays is only the prince on the surface, on the surface, the prince is extremely kind and good to everyone, so the slave really doesn't know what to say." ”

After hearing him say this, Zhu Jianshen was slightly stunned and said, "On the surface? ”

"Yes, on the surface. Because the old slave had no way to peek into the heart of the prince, what he saw was only the appearance of the prince, so the old slave dared to say this. If you say something wrong, please ask the emperor for forgiveness. After speaking, he glanced at Zhu Jianshen and knelt down.

Zhu Jianshen saw his sincere and frightened look, as if he was very scared, after thinking about it slightly, he already understood, after all, he was just a little eunuch, if he tasted the master at will, one day Zhu Jianshen remembered that he would hold a grudge, and then Gu Lengyi would be unlucky, and Gu Lengyi would do this, which can be regarded as a smart man's method.

He hesitated for a moment and said, "Gu Lengyi, Gu Lengyi." After finishing speaking, he couldn't help but sigh slightly.

Since Gu Lengyi refused to tell him his sincere thoughts, then he had no choice, he thought about it and said, "Let's go, let's go see Wan Guifei." ”

After finishing speaking, the two of them were about to go out, and at this time, a little eunuch suddenly came to inform that Wan Zhen'er had come to ask to see her.

Zhu Jianshen smiled and said: "Say Cao Cao, Cao Cao will arrive." was about to go to visit Wan Zhen'er, but Wan Zhen'er came instead, and quickly announced her in. ”

"Yes." The little eunuch agreed, and walked out, and not long after, Wan Zhen'er walked in.

Wan Zhen'er came to see Zhu Jianshen today, and she deliberately dressed up, with rouge on her face, her two eyes like two bright stars, her face like a full moon, and her whole person looked beautiful.

Zhu Jianshen was slightly stunned, thinking to himself, although Wan Zhen'er is a person of some age, she still looks like she is born well.

Wan Zhen'er walked in front of Zhu Jianshen, knelt down for Zhu Jianshen, and said, "Zhen'er knocks on the emperor." ”

Zhu Jianshen shook his head and said, "Okay, Ai Fei, get up." Concubine Ai came to see me today, but is there anything you want to tell me? ”

"It's not like that, it's just because the concubine misses the emperor, the emperor hasn't been to Zhen'er's palace for some days, and Zhen'er thinks that the emperor has forgotten Zhen'er."

Hearing Wan Zhen'er say this, Zhu Jianshen thought about it slightly, and felt that this was indeed the case, so he laughed and said, "I have been really busy with state affairs recently, and I have a lot of family affairs that I need to deal with, so I didn't go to visit you." When I have time, I will definitely visit you. ”

"Thank you for the emperor's concern, Zhen'er knows that the emperor is deeply affectionate and will never ignore Zhen'er." Wan Zhen'er said delicately, then glanced at the emperor again, and said with a smile: "Zhen'er has another thing here, that is, I want to ask the emperor what is going on with the scattered things?" Zhen'er heard that Scatter died inexplicably in the Imperial Garden, and now this matter has spread in the palace, Scatter doesn't seem to have a grudge against anyone on weekdays, why did it end up like this? ”

After hearing her ask, Zhu Jianshen was slightly stunned and said, "I don't know what's going on, in short, this matter is really worrying." I had just visited the eldest princess, and the eldest princess was very sad. ”

"Of course it is." Wan Zhen'er said.

Zhu Jian thought about it deeply, and then said to Wan Zhen'er: "By the way, Zhen'er, I am just about to take my father-in-law Gu to find you." ”

"Really?"

"How could I have lied to you? Of course it's true. ”

"Thank you, the emperor is thinking about Zhen'er in his heart." Wan Zhen'er smiled slightly and said.

Zhu Jian thought about it deeply, and then said to Wan Zhen'er: "I still have an idea in my heart, I want to ask you. ”

"If you have any other ideas, just say it, Zhen'er must know everything, and she will say everything."

"I want to ask you, what do you think of King Jing Zhu Jianchen?"

Hearing Zhu Jianshen ask her this, Wan Zhen'er was slightly stunned, and her heart moved, and she remembered one thing, that is, once, Xia Li, intentionally or unintentionally, mentioned the matter of King Jing Zhu Jianchen in front of Wan Zhen'er, and also hinted that King Jing Zhu Jianchen could form an alliance with her, if one day, Zhu Jianchen won the throne, she Wan Zhen'er could also enjoy endless glory and wealth.

But after thinking about it carefully at the time, Wan Zhen'er felt that this matter could not be established, because the main reason was that Wan Zhen'er was now Zhu Jianshen's imperial concubine, and she was already old and decrepit, if she supported King Jing to become the emperor, so what? In the end, she is only the current concubine at most, so it is better to keep her current position as she is now.

She knew why Zhu Jianshen asked this, but Zhu Jianshen's words really touched her mind, she thought about it, and felt that she shouldn't have said what Zhu Jianchen had enveloped her at that time.

Zhu Jianshen is also the heart of the emperor anyway, very suspicious, in case he knows that he has had contact with Zhu Jianchen, maybe Zhu Jianshen will doubt himself from now on, and Zhu Jianchen may not let go of himself, although she doesn't know how much strength Zhu Jianchen has, but since he dares to plan for the throne wholeheartedly, it means that he still has some strength in this palace.

So thinking of this, she smiled slightly, walked to Zhu Jianshen's side, and said very tactfully: "Your Majesty, the concubines really don't know how to evaluate a person, can the emperor tell the concubines the truth of the matter, so that the concubines can evaluate the whole matter more objectively." ”

Zhu Jianshen hesitated for a moment, and then told Wan Zhen'er what Jian Huaizhen said to him, and after Wan Zhen'er listened, she nodded slowly and said: "The concubine really doesn't want to evaluate King Jing more, because the concubine has very little contact with him, even if she evaluates him, it is also unfair and not objective to him." Instead of this, why don't the concubines help the emperor analyze the whole thing on a case-by-case basis? ”

After Zhu Jianshen heard Wan Zhen'er say this, he told Wan Zhen'er what happened.

After Wan Zhen'er listened, she raised her head, looked at Zhu Jianshen slowly, and said, "Your Majesty, this matter is actually very simple. If you think about it, if you have a conflict of interest with someone, you can understand who your opponent is. ”

"What do you mean by that?" Zhu Jianshen was slightly stunned and asked.

Wan Zhen'er said unhurriedly: "Zhen'er's meaning is actually obvious. ”

Zhu Jianshen also vaguely knew what Wan Zhen'er meant, after all, Wan Zhen'er was resourceful and had some ideas, he was still looking at Wan Zhen'er, waiting for Wan Zhen'er to finish speaking.

Wan Zhen'er said slowly: "Zhen'er has actually said it, in this matter, the main problem is between the eldest princess and King Jing, who is more trustworthy, think about it, emperor." According to the words of the concubine, the concubine will choose to believe in the eldest princess, after all, the eldest princess is a woman, and she assisted the emperor of the three dynasties, according to the concubine's opinion, the eldest princess really has no need to drag the emperor into the water at this time. Could it be that the eldest princess has any opinions about the emperor because of her own preferences, so she has to deal with the emperor? That sounds incredible. Even if the emperor did a lot of wrong things, could it be that the eldest princess fully understood King Jing's character? The eldest princess has never watched King Jing grow up, nor has she ever known what kind of person King Jing is, Your Majesty, you need to know this. ”

After listening to Wan Zhen'er's words, Zhu Jianshen suddenly realized in his heart, yes, what Wan Zhen'er said is indeed very reasonable, even if Jian Huaizhen has the intention to abolish Zhu Jianshen, it should be abolished when he has done a lot of wrong things, not when he and Jian Huaizhen have a good relationship now.

Even if she wants to abolish Zhu Jianshen, does she guarantee that after King Jing Zhu Jianchen becomes the emperor, he will be able to do better than Zhu Jianshen? No one can guarantee it, so after hearing Wan Zhen'er say this, he suddenly understood in his heart.

He looked at Wan Zhen'er and said solemnly: "Zhen'er, what you said is very reasonable. Thank you, if it weren't for you, I would still be in the dark. ”

"The emperor is also a fan of the authorities for a while, but in fact, King Jing is the emperor's biggest competitor. If, if the emperor no longer believes in the eldest princess at this time, and there is any disagreement between him and the eldest princess, who will be the most profitable person at that time? As long as the emperor thinks about this problem clearly, he will know what to do next. Wan Zhen'er said word by word.

After listening to Wan Zhen'er's words, Zhu Jianshen felt like he had encountered a thunderbolt from the sky, and he immediately understood what Wan Zhen'er meant.

Yes, if Jian Huaizhen fell out with him at this time, then King Jing Zhu Jianchen could take the opportunity to get Jian Huaizhen's support, and at this time, if Jian Huaizhen encountered something that was known to King Jing Zhu Jianchen, King Jing Zhu Jianchen would be able to deal with Emperor Zhu Jianshen unscrupulously.

After hearing Wan Zhen'er say this, he immediately understood the seriousness of the matter, he glanced at Wan Zhen'er, and said slowly: "Zhen'er, what you said is very reasonable, if it weren't for your reminder, I would really be deceived." I think King Jing is a person who eats fasting and recites Buddha on weekdays, so he shouldn't have any bad intentions, but listening to you say this, things don't seem to be so simple. ”

Wan Zhen'er smiled euphemistically and said, "Your Majesty, in fact, this has nothing to do with whether King Jing is a person who eats fasting and recites Buddha, even if King Jing is a person who eats fasting and recites Buddha, so what?" But everyone will have a heart, as long as there is a heart, there will be desire, is King Jing really a Buddha now? He didn't, so it's normal for him to have any thoughts now. Even if Zhen'er is disrespectful and says something rebellious, does the emperor still remember Emperor Taizu? Emperor Taizu also used to be an emperor before, but Emperor Taizu also used to be a monk at the beginning, but in the end? Didn't he become the emperor in the end? So, this has nothing to do with whether there is a Buddha heart or not, you can still have a Buddha heart as an emperor, even if you are not the emperor, you can also have the intention of killing. When Zhen'er said this, she was actually thinking, has the emperor ever thought about it? The reason why King Jing has made a look of believing in Buddhism in front of the emperor and the eldest princess for so many years may be inspired by Emperor Taizu, so he keeps his head in obscurity and hides people's eyes. Wan Zhen'er analyzed one by one.

After Zhu Jianshen listened, he couldn't help but appreciate it very much, he felt that Wan Zhen'er's analysis was very reasonable, and Wan Zhen'er said it was also very interesting, if it weren't for Wan Zhen'er and Zhu Jianshen to analyze this matter clearly, Zhu Jianshen would still be in doubt.

Wan Zhen'er saw that Zhu Jianshen's face had eased, and it seemed that she had made a decision in her heart, so she said to him very seriously: "Your Majesty, there is a saying that it is better to kill a hundred by mistake than to let one go." Even if King Jing doesn't think this way in his heart, the emperor still can't take it lightly. According to Zhen'er's opinion, the emperor, you should still keep King Jing in Nansansuo, or detain him somewhere else, you can give him a life of fine clothes and food, you can satisfy his desire to seek Buddha, give him a large number of Buddhist scriptures, and let him do what he likes, which also shows that the emperor is benevolent, brother and brother. On the other hand, the emperor must not let him participate in the political affairs of the court and the imperial court, otherwise, once things change, it will be difficult to make up for it. ”

After hearing Wan Zhen'er's analysis, Zhu Jianshen nodded and said, "Zhen'er, Zhen'er, you are really a female Zhuge ah, your analysis is very reasonable, I completely agree." Yes, I definitely can't use my Ming Dynasty as a game, and I also believe that even if the eldest princess is dissatisfied with me in her heart, she will not take the liberty of setting up a person who doesn't know what kind of character she has as the emperor. Therefore, I decided to listen to your ideas and immediately deprive King Jing Zhu Jianchen of his rights and lock him up. ”

"Your Majesty, you are right to do this. The emperor is wise, long live long live long live. Wan Zhen'er hurriedly knelt down.

The reason why Wan Zhen'er taught Zhu Jianshen like this also has her purpose, she has long understood in her heart what Zhu Jianchen thinks, Zhu Jianchen sent someone to join forces with her, but she couldn't tell Zhu Jianshen clearly, so she had to hint to Zhu Jianshen one by one.

In this way, she will talk about things, but Zhu Jianshen will not doubt her more, she knows that this matter must be explained clearly to Zhu Jianshen, because this matter has a lot to stake, just like her Wan Zhen'er's life, it is also closely related to this matter.

Wan Zhen'er has always been a very thoughtful person, she knows that even if she sits in the position of Wan Guifei now, even if she is very dissatisfied, she can't become the mother of the world after a country, but it is better than changing the dynasty and being the emperor than Zhu Jianchen.

Once Zhu Jianchen becomes the emperor, things are not as simple as they are now, she knows that with Zhu Jianchen's character, he will definitely kill on a large scale, Zhu Jianchen hides himself so deeply, he must have his own ideas, can he allow himself to survive at that time? Since you are chasing an uncertain fate, it is better to grasp what you have now, which can make people live better and more freely.

Thinking of this, she felt very comforted in her heart, and the most comforting thing for her was that this time Zhu Jianshen was actually as good as a stream, willing to listen to her persuasion, and she believed that Zhu Jianchen's end would come soon.

Wan Zhen'er chatted with Zhu Jianshen a few more words, and saw that Zhu Jianshen was a little absent-minded, knowing that he was already thinking about how to deal with Zhu Jianchen, so he bowed and said to him: "Your Majesty, Zhen'er sees that the emperor is busy with official business now, so she won't come to disturb the emperor, Zhen'er will retreat first." If the emperor has anything to do, he can find Zhen'er at any time. ”

Zhu Jianshen nodded, waved his hand to let Wan Zhen'er leave, and said to Wan Zhen'er: "Zhen'er, this time the matter is really thanks to you, if it weren't for you, it would definitely not be so easy to solve." You are really a brave, resourceful, and talented woman, and when I wait until the future, I will definitely make you my queen. ”

After hearing Zhu Jianshen say this, Wan Zhen'er's heart moved slightly. Of course, she knows that Zhu Jianshen sometimes goes back on her word, and if she says it at one moment, he may not recognize it the next moment, but there is always hope with his words, it is better than letting Zhu Jianchen become the emperor, she Wan Zhen'er is not good at anything, so she thanked Zhu Jianshen in time.

"The imperial concubine Niangniang is still reasonable, even if the concubine Niangniang has her own purpose, even if she doesn't think about the emperor and thinks about herself, she will definitely go all out to support the emperor and help the emperor think of a more perfect way. After all, the emperor is good for the concubine, and if something happens to the emperor, the concubine will suffer together. After all, the emperor and the concubine are their own family. ”

Hearing these three words of his own family, Zhu Jianshen seemed to have made some decision, and immediately said to Gu Lengyi: "Okay, I understand what you mean, okay, you step back first, let me think about it, how to deal with Zhu Jianchen." Even if everything King Jing did was just acting with me, but, after all, he also accompanied me to perform such a big show, didn't he? Speaking of this, there was a hint of imperceptible fierceness in his eyes, obviously greatly stimulated.

Zhu Jianshen's expression at this moment looked very gloomy, of course Gu Lengyi didn't dare to say anything, so Gu Lengyi bowed and hurriedly walked out.

After Gu Lengyi walked out, Zhu Jianshen was there alone and carefully thinking about the cause and effect of the matter, and at this time, someone suddenly called softly: "Your Majesty." ”

Zhu Jianshen looked up and saw Xia Guiren didn't know when he walked in.

Zhu Jianshen couldn't help frowning slightly, and said, "Didn't I tell Gu Leng? No one is allowed to come in without my orders, so why did you come in? ”

Xia Liao hurriedly made a very coquettish look, and said to Zhu Jianshen: "Your Majesty, don't blame Father-in-law Gu, it was the concubine who begged Father-in-law Gu for a long time, and Father-in-law Gu had no choice but to let the concubine in." ”

It turned out that after Ling Luo died yesterday, Xia Lili naturally kept this matter in mind, and she came to see Zhu Jianshen to find out the tone of the matter.

Of course, it stands to reason that Gu Lengyi shouldn't let her in, but first, Gu Leng didn't expect her relationship with King Jing, and secondly, she is now Zhu Jianshen's new favorite, and Gu Lengyi didn't dare to disobey her too much, so as not to bury trouble for herself, so under his combination of soft and hard, Gu Lengyi allowed her to come in, anyway, she was just a concubine, Gu Lengyi thought.

After Zhu Jianshen saw her, his brows furrowed slightly, and he said to her: "Okay, it's over, I'm more upset today, you better go back first." ”

"Don't." Xia took a few steps forward, and said to Zhu Jianshen coquettishly: "Your Majesty, you should be upset, maybe you can solve problems for the emperor." That's it, how about singing a Jiangnan song for the emperor? ”

"I'm not in the mood to listen to a little song right now." Zhu Jianshen immediately interrupted her indifferently.

Xia was slightly stunned, and knew that it was the influence of scattered things, so she immediately said: "Since the emperor doesn't want to listen to Xiaoqu, it doesn't matter, what do you want to do, do whatever you want." Why don't you say a few words to the emperor, and the emperor will tell you what he is unhappy about, how about it? ”

After hearing Xia say this, Zhu Jianshen's heart moved slightly, Zhu Jianshen thought to himself, just now thanks to telling Wan Zhen'er about King Jing, Wan Zhen'er gave her thoughts, Xia is the same as Wan Zhen'er, and is also Zhu Jianshen's concubine, so she naturally hopes that Zhu Jianshen will be well, if she tells Xia about the matter, can she also give what kind of advice?

Thinking of this, Zhu Jianshen nodded and said, "Yes, I do have a lot of doubts in my heart now. ”

"Then the emperor will tell the concubines, the concubines have no other skills, and they are the best at helping people analyze things."

Zhu Jianshen told her what had happened, and after listening to it, she couldn't help but scream, she never dreamed that Jian Huaizhen had already told Zhu Jianshen everything, no wonder Zhu Jianshen would show this look.

Xia's voice made Zhu Jianshen feel very surprised, but he suddenly remembered something, then Xia Lilao originally served King Jing Zhu Jianchen, so she is the maid next to King Jing Zhu Jianchen, will she be towards Zhu Jianchen in everything?

He raised his head and looked at Xia Li as if he was observing, and said quietly, "Does Concubine Ai have different thoughts about this matter?" ”

Xia Liao hurriedly shook his head and said, "Of course not, Your Majesty." It's just that the slave maid never dreamed that King Jing would be such a person. She said with some hatred.

Why do you say this in the summer? It's because she has been by the side of King Jing Zhu Jianchen for a long time, and has been trained by Zhu Jianchen for a long time, she knows how to observe words and feelings, and knows a person's inner thoughts.

Zhu Jianshen now knows the truth of the matter, and she didn't expect that Jian Huaizhen was really poisoned, everything was deliberately pretended by her, it can be seen that this person is a very stamina person, so when she heard Zhu Jianshen's tone of narrating these words just now, she already vaguely felt Zhu Jianshen's thoughts, he must have believed Jian Huaizhen and doubted Zhu Jianchen.

After Xia understood this, she knew that she had to be calm no matter what, and she couldn't be seen by Zhu Jianshen, otherwise she would be dead now, let alone report to Zhu Jianchen. So when Zhu Jianshen looked at her, a sneer appeared on her face, and she said, "Your Majesty, all this is really, really surprising to the slave maid." ”

"What? Don't you believe that King Jing would do so many things? Or do you have something else in mind? Why don't you tell me about it? ”

Xia Li knew that no matter what she said at this time, it was useless, and if she said too much, it would make Zhu Jianshen suspicious, so she immediately said: "Of course not, the concubine absolutely believes that this matter was done by King Jing." The eldest princess assisted the three dynasties, and worked hard, how could she beat the emperor's idea? And now that she is old, no matter who she supports to sit on the throne, what good will it do to herself? Therefore, the concubine felt that the culprit of this matter was obvious, it was King Jing Zhu Jianchen. But the concubine never dreamed that King Jing would be such a person, which was really disappointing to the concubine. ”

After she said such a thing, Zhu Jianshen felt very strange, Zhu Jianshen glanced at her and said, "Oh? Is that what you really think? ”

"Don't you believe in your concubines, Your Majesty? Of course, this is the true idea of the concubine, if it is not the true idea of the concubine, the concubine can tell the emperor how good King Jing is. Your Majesty, do you make sense when you say that the concubines are right? ”

Zhu Jianshen nodded, yes, what she said is indeed very reasonable, if she really thinks that King Jing is innocent, then she will definitely excuse King Jing, but in fact, instead of excusing King Jing, she also helped Jian Huaizhen say so many good things, and scolded King Jing, indicating that she is also on Jian Huaizhen's side now.

"Since you and Concubine Wan both think so, I have no choice but to agree with your idea." Zhu Jianshen looked at her and said.

"Your Majesty, it's just that the concubine still has an idea, I don't know if I should talk about it or not."

"If you have any ideas, just say them." Zhu Jianshen looked at her and said.

"That's the case, the concubine thinks that this matter, Concubine Wan Guifei is very reasonable, and the concubine's thoughts are exactly the same. But there is one point that the concubines disagree. ”

"What's not to agree with?" Zhu Jianchen looked at her.

"That is, the concubine thinks that Concubine Wan's method is too risky, and the concubine never agrees."

"Adventure? Why do you say that? ”
